Q: Who is responsible for having Worker’s Comp insurance for the trainers who work in my barn?
Q: If a client’s horse is injured and I contact the vet to arrange treatment for the horse, can I be held responsible for the costs?
Q: How should I classify the workers at my barn and what are my responsibilities for paying taxes and submitting forms to the IRS?
